Show Steps
Start in the centre on the right-hand side, working vertical sections of 0.5 cm with your first color (IGORA Vario Blonde Plus Powder Bleach). Leaving large areas of untreated hair between each section, work this section through, finishing just behind the ear.

Now move up to the top of the head to the left of the central parting, working this next section from the front hairline through to the crown.
Formula
Show Steps
Repeat the same process on the other side, remembering to keep an eye on the bleach result of the first section (if required, you should take these highlights out and rinse - leave the other sections processing until you have achieved the same bleach result).
Formula
Show Steps
Finally, working on the previously bleached sections, take the recommended color recipies 2-6 and work these randomly through the bleached bands to give an overall finish that is varied, but still balanced. When the desired color is achieved, rinse, shampoo and condition before styling to finish.
